Unit Summary
Physical Pharmaceutics–I deals with the fundamental physical and physicochemical principles applied in pharmacy. It covers states of matter, intermolecular forces, solubility, dissolution, surface and interfacial phenomena, rheology, and micromeritics. The subject explains how these principles influence drug formulation, stability, bioavailability, and dosage form design, forming a strong base for pharmaceutics and industrial pharmacy studies.
